Dining

We booked a table at 4 pm on a weekday at Boqueria at 40th st. When we ordered their seafood paella, the waiter told us it can take an hour to prepare and then we must vacate the table by 5:15, giving us only 15 minutes to eat it. (Nowhere in our opentable reservation did […]

Their mini dumplings tasted really good, as well as their crab & pork soup dumplings. I just wish they provided more mini dumplings and didn’t add a bunch of lettuce at the bottom of the container to give the illusion that there were more than there actually were.

Had a really uncomfortable experience at brunch at The Commerce Inn in the West Village this weekend that honestly felt discriminatory. I’m a brown woman. I walked in to ask for a table and the host told me there were ZERO spots left and that the waitlist for brunch was completely CLOSED for the day.

Last night Stephen revealed that he always eats steamed chicken during rehersal. He’s on 53rd and Broadway. Where do we think he orders from? submitted by /u/gloriamuntz [link] [comments]

Don’t get me wrong, their ice cream is amazing but there are several things about this business that really frustrate me. The hours are already limited (9:30pm closing) and after seeing all their creative flavors posted on Instagram, you get there at 8:30 and they are out of almost all their flavors except one or

I was able to snatch a last minute one person reservation for tonight and was pretty excited, cuz I know it’s hard to get into this place. The experience was, well, underwhelming. The food itself wasn’t bad; it’s not mind blowing, a bit uneven, but generally pretty decent. There aren’t many Cambodian restaurants in NYC,

There was no way I was standing in line for that long, so a month ago, I booked a reservation at Golden Diner (not easy btw, I had to be very quick cause the spots disappear in seconds). I didn’t mind waiting a month to try it. What I went for is the honey butter

Great for the price tbh, but they definitely try their best to skimp on the ice cream by setting it around the rim of the cone. lol Also, no wait when I went during lunchtime on a weekday. submitted by /u/DinerEnBlanc [link] [comments]

Went to Sip from Sip & Guzzle. Their Royale with cheese was delicious and my favorite thing on the menu. The shake it came with I didn’t like at all. The pork yaki skewer I highly recommend. Volcano roll was good, but probably wouldn’t order again. Mochi fries were good as well. I thought the

Not pictured is the rugelach and carrot cake which are also divine. I’ve only been once before and got the Lil Shonda before which was equally as good as the patty melt imo. I’ll try the Tuna Melt eventually! submitted by /u/Chrominumv2 [link] [comments]

Gao Xiao Pa – Google Maps This is a more unique take on rou jia mo with stacked marinated chicken thigh cooked on a vertical rotisserie. They even have pineapple on top of the spit like al pastor would. Think you can get a slice of pineapple with your rou jia mo if you ask.

Just had lunch at this Ridgewood outpost that’s been on my list for years. Mama Yoshi is a neighborhood fast casual restaurant that serves chicken katsu sandwiches, breakfast burritos, and katsu curry bowls. They also sell an assortment of imported Japanese pantry goods and snacks like ramen, curry blocks, staple condiments, chocolate bars, and canned

Went to The Long Island Bar in Cobble Hill and really enjoyed its laid back atmosphere. There deviled eggs and LI Burger were standouts to me. Also, really liked their Long Island Gimlet drink. I would definitely go back. Long Island Bar website: https://www.thelongislandbar.com/ submitted by /u/Euphoric_Emergency31 [link] [comments]

Birdee- cherry pistachio milk bun was a 10. the churro croissant was ok, i just wish it had filling. the blueberry lemon twist also great. the BEC however was too salty. still good, just not great. 8.2 Bernie’s- wedge salad, vinegar chicken, mozz sticks, and the lemon ice box pie was amazing. the overall vibe,

Got a walk in seat by the bar and enjoyed a solid cheese burger that costed $15.25 for lunch. https://jgmelon-nyc.com/menu IG: @JGmelon_nyc submitted by /u/ThrowawayNYCJ [link] [comments]

I don’t order bánh mì often because I grew up on them and hate when it’s not done right. This is in addition to the gentrification of the buzz word “bánh mì” (I’ve seen a Korean style bbq pork belly on a ciabatta banh mi served with fries). So I did some research and went

Gai Kitchen – Google Maps Page Gai Kitchen – Website This place is very good for a quick, casual, and filling meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful and comes with two different sauces. I opted for the ginger rice, which was very fragrant. It comes with a very good soup that was not simply

Ok I have seen a shit ton of posts/comments saying that Los Tacos 1 is over rated. I for one, have lived in nyc my whole life. Most of my experience is in Manhattan because I live here. I’ve tried a lot of small mom and pop shops, trucks, stands, and restaurants in my time.

I’m a frugal diner, usually solo, and I’m always very calculative about meals. I like going to normal restaurants, nothing much upscale, and I usually order 2 things max (entree + either app, dessert, or non alcoholic drink) I feel like even a year or year and a half ago I used to spend between

El Tenampa Deli and Grocery – Google Maps Page Hard to tell they serve amazing Mexican food from the outside. After entering, walk straight back for tacos and more. This place can get very busy, especially on the weekends. Lots of people eating in and taking out. Very local feel. Tacos were $3.75 each. Got

Heres my ratings based on the Beli app. The ratings are not perfect but its somewhat a good reflection of my preferences: 1) Thea: 9.7 2) Burrow: 8.9 3) Culture Espresso: 8.7 4) levain: 8.7 5) Lappartment 4F: 8.3 6) Schmackary’s: 7.4 * forgot to add Saint Street Cakes: 8.7- Fort Greene, BK. I have

I’m pregnant and got a craving from YEARS AGO and it was specifically the honey mustard that they used at mars 2112. I remember it being BRIGHT yellow and it is most definitely not Ken’s. I remember it being on the sweeter side. I know this is so random but I’m hoping that someone here

I 100% don’t blame them for hiking prices up, but my halal guy now charges $13.50 for chicken over rice, up $1 from roughly three weeks ago. I asked him if price went up and he said “is cost of doing business my friend.” And that’s exactly why I sadly won’t be eating it as

Starting a new training program called fat a** runs. Where me, the fat a** runs to a bakery of my choosing to get a sweet treat that cancels out the whole run I just did. Today’s run was motivated by babka. I ran 10 miles around Manhattan and over the Williamsburg bridge to Oneg Bakery

Okay so I heard this restaurant was hard for walk-ins because of how packeddd it gets but I would agree to make reservations. I went at 3pm without reservations it was packedddd barely room to walk. I ordered the bar steak frites was $37. This my first time seeing a bar steak on a menu

Had to spend an extended amount of time (3.5 weeks) in NYC for work so I turned it into the ultimate food tour for myself. I can honestly say I did not have a bad meal. How did I do? Tsukemen noodles at Okiburo House of Tsukemen: 11/10 noodles were perfectly chewy and bouncy Chicken

I just got back from a trip to Hong Kong and had the best wonton noodle soup I’ve ever tasted. Super delicate wontons, thin springy noodles, and a subtle but flavorful broth. Both the pork and shrimp dumplings were amazing – the shrimp had a slight umami, salty flavor and the pork kind of tasted

I grew up eating Chinese takeout in Massachusetts / New England and I feel like it’s VERY different from what I’ve been finding in NYC. Boneless spare ribs that are sweet, a little sticky, slightly fatty (not dry or super lean) Crispy crab Rangoon’s that are super thin And duck sauce that has apple sauce

I’ll start – I had dinner at Bong a few weeks ago and everything from the food to the drinks to the service was a 10000/10. What spots have you been to recently where everything was a hit? submitted by /u/Imaginary_Ad_9096 [link] [comments]

https://hainannyc.com Google Maps page Hainan is one of the places I recommend for Korean-Chinese food and to satisfy jajangmyeong cravings. Their regular jajangmyeon is $5.99 cash price for dine-in. A bit more for take-out and with credit card. This was very good for the price. Very saucey with thick, chewy noodles. They have others that

I didn’t see this posted anywhere else but Eater NYC officially posted 4 days ago that The Meatball Shop was closing. I checked their website and they’re already shut down, their Instagram hasn’t been updated since June. I used to go to TMS a lot when I was in grad school in the mid-2010s cause

I’m genuinely so sick of their shit. They’re literally just 100 ”restaurants” in one, horrible frozen food microwaved and designed (probably even ai-generated) to look good in their ads, taking loads of money from actually delicious small businesses. I suggest trying Ladybird or PLNTBurger for good healthy vegetarian stuff rather than “Hanu Poke by Wonder”

So Sysco seems to be EVERYONES food supplier and I’m wondering if there are any must try places that have other suppliers? I am not looking for a Sysco free restaurant, but a place that sources enough “other” ingredients that you can tell. Not sure if that makes sense. submitted by /u/Asleep-Machine5909 [link] [comments]
